Marshaling our financial resources – and the commitment of our colleagues – to promote a more sustainable world
At the regional level, the Foundation works to identify projects and organizations that bring Caesars Entertainment colleagues together to tackle projects with important environmental and educational benefits for our communities. Caesars Foundation’s emphasis on sustainability and innovative educational initiatives translates into support for diverse organizations providing advocacy, promoting conservation and stewardship of our planet and its natural resources and enhancing educational opportunities in various regions.

Improving the quality of life in our operating communities
On a local level, we support civic organizations, charitable organizations and faith-based groups that help address vital, unmet needs in cities and towns where our colleagues live and work. Each focus is as diverse as the communities we serve: health and wellness organizations, social-services providers, youth groups, programs for persons with disabilities, scholarships that enable access to higher education – whatever the need, we seek out the right partners to help us make meaningful, long-term impacts. Please check with your local Caesars Entertainment property to learn more about their civic focus.

Requests must be submitted online. Caesars Foundation does not accept requests via postal mail. Caesars Foundation is currently only accepting funding proposals from solicited organizations through the end of 2016.

Strategic giving:Directing our resources where they can make a world of difference

We place considerable emphasis on ensuring that our financial support is directed toward a relatively small number of programs and organizations that help further our overarching goals: Helping older individuals live longer, healthier, more fulfilling lives; promoting a safer, cleaner environment and providing innovative educational opportunities; and improving the quality of life in our operating communities.

Sustained support:Seeing our commitments through

No single grant or one-time donation is sufficient to solve complex issues such as hunger, poverty and chronic disease. That's why the Caesars Foundation typically seeks to establish multi-year relationships with its key philanthropic partners.

Our longstanding support of groups such as Meals On Wheels Association of America, AARP Foundation, Opportunity Village, the Public Education Foundation and other organizations offers evidence of our intention to see our commitments through. And this farsighted approach is working for our partners and their constituents.

Caesars Foundation strives to harness the energy, drive and enthusiasm of Caesars Entertainment employees in support of our various charitable commitments and partnerships. Their personal financial contributions and thousands of hours of volunteer work add immeasurable value to our efforts.

Building a broader knowledge base:Conducting research, heightening public awareness of critical social issues

Caesars Foundation provides valuable financial support to worthy civic, philanthropic, educational and community partners in ways that produce meaningful, measurable results for individuals and communities alike.

But beyond our philanthropic role, the Foundation also brings together various stakeholders – academic experts, government organizations, research institutes and other authorities in various disciplines – to conduct research and create broader awareness of social issues it addresses through its gifts, grants and donations.
